She's in a mystery location. And that mystery location is definitely. not in Auckland. However, I swear to God, I saw her car today. I saw her car driving around Auckland. The number plate? You saw that? Yeah, from the side.

So I kind of, I know her number plate is very distinctive, but I swear to God, it was her car. You know, she has a partner, right? It could be that. But then how did she get to her mystery location? In another car? Fair question. You know?

Maybe she got suffered. I'm just starting the conspiracy theory that she's actually here. She just wanted some time off. She just wanted some time. She needed a break. And you know what, girl, fair enough. Maybe she wanted more of Clint Week. Yeah.

That's probably what it is. That's what it is. She wanted Clint Week. Give the people what they want. Oh, I'm depressed in Clint Week. I got a haircut today and I hate it. Oh, let's see it. Take your hat off.

No. What? No. We can only see the little ponytail hood at the back. I just, do you know that feeling when you go and get a haircut? Yeah. And I know the feeling because when I go in, I'm like, why am I getting this haircut?

I quite like my hair at the moment Why am I getting it cut? I'm only getting it cut Because it's in my diary Every six weeks to get it cut Did you do the classic Where they, like you're looking in the mirror And they go, what do you think?

I feel like a lot of people would have married someone off Tinder these days. Was it quite rare when you did it? Well, it was about 10 years ago, so it seemed a lot more, a lot rarer then. It seemed to be edgy back then, eh? You're like, oh my God. Something you didn't tell everyone. Yeah, yeah. Okay, very good.

Trades go to 95. Ladies are on 91. ZDM's Bree and Clint Podcast. We are living in the great, in my opinion, the greatest TV era of all time. That's why there's so many streaming platforms. They don't exist for you to stream movies. They exist so you can go week to week to week to week, binging TV shows. But we're also living in the era of bringing back TV shows that used to be great

and hopefully will be great again. They tried it with Full House. That was one of the iconic ones they attempted to do it with, with original cast, but they couldn't get the Olson Twins. That Fuller House. That was Fuller House, and that was... Garbage House. Oh, he can't.

I can't say garbage house. I feel mean being mean about Full House now that Bob Sagitt's dead. Oh, fair. Yeah, Claudia. Yeah, Claudia. They tried it with Gilmore Girls. Oh, they did. Oh, yeah.

I didn't watch it, but I heard not good. Yeah, it was... More alive. Yeah, it didn't have nostalgia. Did it not? No, it just wasn't the same. It felt try hard. Try hard.

And that's really... That's a real risk when you're bringing these shows back. Absolutely. They're about to try it with Scrubs, which I know a lot of people are excited about. People loved Scrubs. Is this a Doctor Show? Is it a hospital doctor show? Yes, Hospital Doctor Show.

Yeah. But comedy. Oh, cool. Not serious, not Grey's Anatomy, not E.R. That comes out in February. Okay. New Scrubs' original cast. All of them?

All of them, by the look. Wow. Okay. I saw J.D. I saw Turc Say less, that's all I need And I saw that older guy And I saw the girl

Yes I didn't see the older guy The janitor Yeah Oh Surely he's in there though Yeah maybe it's a surprise They're also about to do it

With this show Yes no Maybe I don't know Ella do you know this show No what is it Gen Z do you know this show No

You're not the boss of me Now You don't know Is it? Yeah it's Malcolm in Widdell Well done. Well done. That was in my brain somewhere.

Frankie Munez is in it. Walter White from Breaking Bad is in it. Only one of the brothers is not in it. The youngest one. The youngest one's been recast. With an identical person somehow. They're only doing four episodes though. Oh, okay.

So I think it could be good. Less pressure. I think less pressure. Come back, have some fun. GTFO. I've got a question for everybody this afternoon. If they're bringing TV shows back, what else? What other TV shows need to make a comeback?

But I've got a couple of criteria for this, okay? Can't just go willy-nilly. I've only got two criteria. None of the main actors can be dead in real life, which means no fresh prince of ballet because Uncle Phil's dead. No friends. Oh my gosh. Because Chandler's dead.

No. So you can't recart. anyone or just have an episode where you explain why such and such is not there. Like they tried to do with sex in the city and they're like, she's gone to Paris. She's not here right now. Yeah, she's in Paris. She just texts us on every second episode. And my other criteria is they can't have killed off the main character in the final season

of the show, which means no Breaking Bad. What? Oh, spoiler of that. Oh, no. I don't know who, though. Well, no, the premise of that show is about a man who. who has terminal cancer. That's the whole show.

I haven't seen it. Oh, Clinton. That shows only like 10 years old. Okay, well, spoiler alert. One more. Yep. Sons of Anarchy. I don't know that.

Neither have I, but that's what chat GPT said. Well, I've got a list. Yeah, Chuck one out there. Parks and Rec. Great idea. Yeah. That was a solid show. And I think they would do it well.

They would. Yeah, they would. I think they definitely would. Claudia. Brooklyn 9-9. You love. of Brooklyn 9-9, don't you? Yeah, I agree.

They could just pick up where they left off. Yeah, exactly. The office. Oh, yeah. They could just go, right? They really could. The cast, the amount that you'd have to pay them would have gone through the roof.

But people would pay for it, right? Especially World's Sexiest Man Alive, 24, John Krasinski. I love how you know that now. He'd be like, I'm hot, guys. I'm hot now. You've got to pay me more. 966-9-6, or text 9-6-96, what TV shows do they need bring back the main cast members can't be dead and the main characters can't be dead okay those are the

only criteria only two criteria i said the core cast must still be alive in real life like they can't one of the main characters can't have died and the only other criteria was they can't have killed off one of the main characters in the final season and what show did you suggest they bring back Claudia? I had a complete brain fart and I said Brooklyn 9-9. And what have 95% of the text messages we've received been about? I would like to issue a public apology. I did forget that Captain Holt has passed away in real life. Oh, spoiler alert. No, like real life.

Yeah, IRL. I think I, like I remember that and I was so sad about it that I think I just blocked it out because I couldn't handle it. But great point. I'll take that off the list. So no, that can't come back. No. Because we said no recaster. Yeah. No recasting. So I'll replace that one with Dairy Girls, please. Okay.

Yeah, more of that. Do you want a fact-check that before you lock that in? Yeah, I'll bear it back. Let's go through some of these and see if any of them fail the criteria. These are your guys' suggestions for TV shows that we should bring back. Not recast, not start again like... Spinoffs? Gossip Girl.

Not a new series. Like Ella had the idea of a new season of Friends, but it's all the kids. Yeah, or something like that. Which I think would be God-awful. I think so. You can't re-catch to that magic. They'd try and give Joey's kids all of Joey's traits. They'd try and give Phoebe's kids all of Phoebe's traits.

I would love to see it done well, though. It could be. I don't think it's possible either. If there are OG creators to do it. Fwans again. Okay, suggestions. Let's start with a Kiwi one. Outrageous Fortune.

Oh, yeah. Yes. Danger. Is that the vampire? No, it's the West Auckland. Oh, God. Move on. I think that one would work.

That 70s show They tried Remember they did that 90s show Earlier this year And it was about It was about the kids It was exactly what you're talking about It was about the kids

And Kitty and Red were now Grandparents instead of parents Oh It was like cameos from the old cast Yeah and it was a fizz It was one season fizz I agree with this one Modern Family

Yes And I feel like all The whole cast It's a big cast But they would all be keen I reckon Yes It's just who do we

get to be the cute kids. Because when the kids stop being cute is when that show got hard to watch for me. I guess so, you're right. When Mani started being like, oh, I'm an adult man now. I think Mani's the worst character. Oh.

He is. I like, who do I like? Luke, he's funny. Yeah, Luke's good. This is a great suggestion. Schitt's Creek. Schitt's Creek, just pick up where you left off. Or jump five years into the future.

Yeah, I like a little time jump. Ew, David. Ew. More texts telling Claudia about Captain Holt. Someone also pointed out. Claudia can't bring back Bookland 9-9. Ray Holt is dead. I know, and I'm still so sad.

Someone also pointed out that Cheddar, the dog, is also a main character in that show and he's also dead. Jesus, Claudia. I'm actually okay with recasting a dog. Quite a few texts saying bring back home improvement. And I like that idea. They kind of have. There's a new Tim Allen sitcom out.

It's called Shifting Gears. And it's him, and he plays a dad who works on cars, like it couldn't be more similar. And his adult daughter moves home. But his adult daughter is the shorter girl from two broke girls. I don't know what that girl's name is. The dark-haired one. The dark-haired one.

Oh, is that Cat Dennings? Yes. Wow, you're good. I say confidently. No idea. There was a show that was announced for a reboot but then got cancelled that I was so excited about. Did you ever watch Lizzie McGuire? Oh, yeah.

No. Disney show. It was so good. It was like formative years. And then they cancelled it. Well, Hilary Duff looks the same. She does. Flight of the Concord's, bring it back.

Yes, a new Flight of the Concord season would be brilliant. These are suggestions for TV shows to bring back. Freaks and Geeks is a classic. Oh, did you ever watch the middle? No. Brick, the kid would be like, hello. Going to the library. Yeah.

Bring it back. Bring it back. Okay. And one tree hill. Oh, yeah. These are all good classic show. Vampire Slayer's coming back. It's actually coming back.

Is it? No, is that what you're saying? Is it? No, I don't know. What are you saying? I was just reading a text that said Buffy the Vampire Slayers coming back. Damn. Hannah Montana?

I don't know if Riley would be keen. Z-Aim's Brian and Clint. Time for the tea. This is the tea. David Beckham is now Sir David Beckham, which I know means a lot to him. Remember when the Queen died and he made headlines around the world for being one of the only celebrities to join the line? All these other people were being whisked through in the VIP line and David Beckham made the news because he actually lined up with all the regular people.

Yeah, I feel like. And waited his turn to go and pay respects to the Queen. Everyone loved that. He kind of looked like one for the people, you know? 100%. Well, he's just received a knighthood in the latest list of honours. We all thought that David Beckham already had a knighthood, didn't we? I already thought he was Sir David Becker.

Yeah, when I saw that on the news, I was like, hasn't this happened? Like, it looked so familiar. I thought so. Yeah, no. Well, he received an OBE in 2003. Oh. And he's been waiting for a knighthood ever since. Sir David Beckham described it as truly humbling in a moment he could have never imagined.

There's a video of him getting the knighthood and when they do the ceremony and they still do the sword thing. Oh, do they? You kneel down and there's a little stool for you to kneel. nail on. And all the people who receive knighthoods are older and there's a little handle for you to hold as you kneel down, which I think is nice. And then the king comes and taps you on the shoulder with the sword. He's very haphazard with the sword.

Like I'm sure it's not a sharp one. Oh, right, but he flings it around. Oh, you just kind of like dibbly dobblies it down. I'm like, no, no, I want you to draw the sword. Yeah. Like we're going into battle and then you place it down on me like Excalibur. Yep. You know?

That would be the worst time to accidentally toot, wouldn't it? What's it? When you're receiving the knighthood? Oh, yeah, because you're having to, like, nail down and, you know, you get older and things slip out. Arise, sir. There's a shot of him just after he arises, Sir David, and he's speaking with the king, but they're not miced up and you can't tell what they're talking about. David has said that, because what do you talk to the king about? Thank you.

What would you say to him? He said the king was complimenting David's suit. Nice. Oh, that's lovely. He's like, the king was like, fast, scuck, suit, bro. You look cool, man. Remember when Ruby Tui met the king? Yeah, and she said, um, words to the effect of, bro, that's a massive lawn you've got out there.

You should put a rugby field on it. Ruby Tui's to go. We've got to knight her. Yeah. And, yeah. I was going to ask, what do you have to do to kind of get knighted? Oh, good question. Did lots of different things.

Sir David Beckham got it for services to sport and charity. Oh, that's cool. Yeah. Okay. Who's one of the more recent. I think Kiwis to get it. You basically get it for being Prime Minister these days.

Oh, yeah. What is Dame Susan DeVoy? What's the Dame aspect? Services to Sport. Oh, there you go. Dame is the... The equivalent. The women's equivalent.

There you go. Do you guys know I don't know what happens in Wicked? I don't know how it ends. Neither of you. And I'm so proud that we haven't found any spoilers yet. Yeah, please don't text us spoilers yet. Don't. I'm not looking. I managed to go to the premiere of Wicked One

without having seen Wicked. How have you missed it all? I just never grew up on it. No, neither. But I love it. I love it. I'm so excited for the second one. Anyway, the premiere happened,

the world premiere happened in Sao Paulo this week, yesterday I think. And Arianda Grande didn't get to go because her flight got cancelled. Which sounds like a very normal person problem that only happens to you and I, not superstar, movie star, pop stars, right? Yeah, you'd think that should be able to just get a private chat.

Yes, so much so that people are saying that she's lying and she just didn't want to go to the Brazil premiere of the film. Can I say I don't believe that? Because in case I haven't mentioned it enough already today, Bree and I went to Sydney for the premiere of Wicked One and we interviewed Ariana Grande, face-to-face, her and Cynthia Arrivo, correct. Wow. She called me by my name, and I called her by her name.

That's cool. Um, she could not have been more engaging, welcoming, friendly, happy to be there. Like she was, and I saw her talking to fans on the green carpet, or the Yellow Brick Road, rather, at the actual movie part of the premiere. She had a lot of time for everything, eh? She was great, so I don't believe that she bailed on it. It's a role that she, like, desperately wanted. Oh, yeah. You know?

Oh, yeah. So I feel like she's just so in everything with this movie. But it's random that she shouldn't be there because a flight got cancelled. Because our flights get cancelled. Ariana Grande's flights don't get cancelled. Anyway, she has cleared that up with a video that she recorded on her phone and they played in the cinema at the world premiere of Wicked 2. Here's Ariana Grande's explanation.

My team and I tried absolutely everything humanly possible to fix this and to get me there. My original flight was delayed 16 hours. Then we had to deplane and by the time we started. checking to see if I could get on other flights. I tried to get on Johnny's flight. There were no seats available. And we started calling down like crazy people trying to find a private jet. And the problem is, in order to fly private into Brazil, you need a permit, which takes 48 hours

for them to approve and process, which I didn't know, obviously, until now. Thanks, Ariana Grande. Please don't record it inside your shower next time. It would be easier to hear. But yeah, she said, because she was flying over the day before the premiere, and to get a private jet into Brazil, you need 48 hours notice. Rich people problems. I didn't know they had problems like that.

No. So she couldn't go. I mean, if I was the head of Brazil, I'd let her in. If you were the head of Brazil. Yeah, like the traffic control approval of man. Approval of man? Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

No, I would too, Ella. I would too. But obviously. She's Ariana Grande. Yeah, but obviously she's not that powerful. I guess not. She's Galinda, and she's not that powerful. Galinda.

So we want to know this afternoon. What did you miss out on, because your flight got cancelled. Real world problems. Just like, you are just like Ariana Grande. You guys are exactly the same. Did you miss a wedding? Did you miss a family member's wedding?

Did you miss your wedding? Oh, no. Because the flight got cancelled. Did you miss a funeral because a flight got cancelled? A graduation. A graduation. A birth? Oh, no.

Did you miss the birth of your own child because a flight got cancelled? Did you miss the greatest concert of all the... time because your flight got cancelled. If our flight got cancelled going to see Taylor Swift, because Cordia and I were on the same flight, we went together. What would you have done? I think I genuinely would have tried, like... To swim?

We did actually... Yeah, yeah. Specifically, we booked to fly out on Thursday for a Friday concert because we're like, we're not risking delays, cancellations. We had a buffer. Yeah, we did. That's right. I don't think that's enough of a buffer. But can you imagine if they cancelled that flight? Because that plane was basically all Swifties.

Can you imagine the whaling? that would happen in the terminal. And they'd be like, ladies, you need to calm down. Please just shake it off. No. Mean. Nice. The ZDM Podcast Network.

In a very relatable turn of fate, Ariana Grande hasn't been able to attend the Wicked 2 premiere, world premiere in Brazil, because her flight got cancelled. There's a video on TikTok of a guy who says he was sat next to her on the flight. They're in business class and he says, she's not lying. I was on the flight with her yesterday. She was sat right there.

Our flight got, what are they called, deplained where everyone has to get off the plane. And they said, we're rebooking you on the same flight tomorrow. And that would have been too late for her to get there. And so she just didn't go because she couldn't get to the premiere. And he was like, that's the seat that she was in. I promise you I was sitting next to her. And I don't know. I believe him.

I believe I'm in that. So we've asked, what is the thing that you missed because your flight got cancelled? Razor is here. Hi, Razor. Hi, Clint. What's the thing you missed because your flight got cancelled? So we were already in America and our flights got cancelled to go see Disney. I did not.

I told my husband I didn't want to go to Vegas. I didn't want to do anything else. I just wanted to go to the Universal and do the Harry Potter. Yes. And all our flights got canceled. and because we were short on time, we weren't able to book anything else to reschedule, so we're going to just have to take another trip.

Oh, that's gutting. So you still haven't made it to the Harry Potter world yet? We still haven't. And I'm a huge, huge fan. How long ago was that? How long ago was it? About two years ago. You've got to go back.

Yeah, we have to go back. Yeah, I just also want to say, long-time listener and first-time caller. There she is. So nice to talk to Ella as well. Oh. Just felt like, you know, I've been listening to you guys for so long and, like, speaking to you, felt like I knew you guys.

Razor, you sweetheart. The girls are raging. They're dancing out in the booth. You've made our day. Thank you so much. If we had a trip to Universal Studios in Harry Potter World, we would give it to you right now, Razor, I promise. That would be amazing.

I already got tickets, so I just need to book the flight. Okay. Okay, we'll hold you to that. We're asking what you missed because your flight got cancelled. This person wants to be anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hello. What was it?

What did you miss? Well, I was flying back from Sydney and we were caught in the Sydney storms. Oh, yes. And they kept delaying the flight only by a few hours every single time, probably about 10 times. Yeah. Ended up me missing my best friend's wedding. No. And I was a bride's native.

as well, so she'll never forgive me for that. But they got married. Yes. You know, she's expecting again now, and she's already got a child as well. So going back a few years. But, yeah, it is something that's by me. Well, hopefully that marriage doesn't work out. They separate.

She finds someone new. She gets married again, and she invites you so you can do a make-good anonymous. Well, I'm not sure if I'll wish for that. No, me neither. I get the feel. You know, I can relate to this personally, and exactly, actually. when I got married, my best friend was my groomsman, my, what's the main groomsman's name, best man, and there was a cyclone the day before our wedding, and he needed to fly from Christchurch

to Auckland to get to our wedding, and he almost didn't make it. And I remember being angry at him because he was going to miss this flight by no fault of his own. He didn't cause the cyclone, but I remember being mad at him anonymous because I thought he wasn't going to make it. That's right. Yeah. Except in my story, he did make it. Oh, that's right. Yeah, that's flight twist.

Thank you, Donna Miss. We're asking, what did you miss? Because the flight got cancelled. Someone said, well, I was meant to go with you to the Wicked Premier in Sydney. And I missed the whole trip because my friend had to answer the phone for us to get it. And she didn't because it was an unknown number. Oh, my God. You were the person who was going to come with Bree and I, to the person.

premiere, yeah. And I remember we met the other winners. We had a drink with them that night. It wasn't that fun though, eh? Like, she's not missing anything, man. Nah, nah. The weather wasn't awesome. We didn't meet Ariana Grande. Didn't go on the yellow brick road.

We didn't meet People Magazine's Sexiest Man Alive, 2025, Jonathan Bailey. Oh my gosh, no. Nah. Nah. Nah. Ugh.

It's ZAM's Brie and Clint podcast. IKEA opens very shortly here in Tamaki Makoto, Auckland, and I know the girlies are very excited about it, aren't you? Yeah, boy. I want the viral bookshelf. I said, don't drive there because of the traffic. And Claudia goes, I have to drive there. I can't get the train. I want to get a whole bookshelf. Literally.

I'm supposed to get it home. I'm waiting for the lamp, the floor lamp. Did you know we've all been saying IKEA wrong this whole time? Yeah, you said this, but I don't understand how you can. could say it another way. Me either. So our first ever IKEA opens on the 4th of December. I've got friends who live overseas and they're like see, they're Kiwis and they're like,

guys, the way you guys are getting excited about IKEA is so embarrassing. It's not a thing for the rest of the world. They just exist. It's like when we got Costco. Yeah. People are like, you're excited for, bro, you're excited for Costco. It's just a big warehouse. Anything we don't have, we're like.

It's new. It's new. And this is IKEA. We're talking about easy to easy flat pack furniture. You don't know that it's easy. No, no, no. You've never built an IKEA. You don't know that it's easy.

Oh, I know. I've seen so many TikToks and I've seen how people easily put it together and then you can paint on it. Let's be real though. Let's be real though. What? Are you going to be putting it together or are you going to get your husband to put it together? Of course my husband will put it together.

Exactly. That's what my wife says too. She's like, oh, let's get a flat pack. It's so easy. No, but there's also towels. Claudia told me to wait great towels and get some towels from them. Okay, this is not an ad for IKEA. No.

I'm just exciting. But if you're listening, the girls would love to come. And like have a free reign and have a car park. Stuff has written a story. They've talked to a Swedish Kiwi who says we've been saying IKEA wrong this whole time. Which like I said before, I cannot figure out how we could be saying it wrong. I've never mispronounced a word in my life. Ella, blindly.

Yeah. See if you can pronounce IKEA correctly. How do you think it should be said, if not IKEA? Ikea. Ooh, okay. You know? It sounds like it could be vaguely right. I'm not sure.

I haven't listened to this yet. What did you say? It's Swedish, so Sweden. Ikea. I don't know. Okay. Should we ever listen to this? Yeah.

This is how apparently you're meant to say Ikea. The Swedish pronunciation is a lot more similar to the Therio-Malri way of pronouncing. In Swedish, it's Ikiya. Swedish I is pronounced U and EY is pronounced Ea, Ikiya. Ikiya. Ikiya. Ikiya. I'm not saying that.

Ikea. I'm not saying that. Ikea. Can you imagine? Can you imagine you're talking to your mates? You're like, should we go to Ikea? This weekend. And they're like, what did you just say?

What are you on about? Ikea. Are you trying to fight me? The Swedish flat pack store. Ikea. With the Swedish meatballs. Yeah. I'm like, bro, are you trying to say Ikea?

No. Well, from fact, guys, I'll hear it on the Breenclint show. It's actually pronounced Ikea. I was from an article. Yeah. We'll do with that information what you will, but just know people will bully you if you try and say it that way. A ZM's Breenclint podcast.

If you're single and you're not using LinkedIn, maybe you should start. There is stats out today that says. is LinkedIn is increasingly being used as a place for romantic connections, not just professional networking. According to this article, some people are using LinkedIn as a kind of background check tool for dating. Because, and this is the logic behind it, and it does make sense, but I've got some issues. We'll get to those.

The logic behind you using LinkedIn is you use it as a background check tool before you date, the person because the stuff on your LinkedIn profile tends to be more verifiable and professional than stuff you might put on other apps, which makes sense because if you put it up there and you say, I am versed in Microsoft Excel, for example, someone can come along and go, I've seen them do that, I've seen them Excel, they are, and they endorse your skill. So for dating terms, you could say, I am six foot two. And someone could come along and go, I've met him, he is. And it could get verified on there.

That's so interesting. And people have suggested that should be something that is built into dating apps, height specifically. And that gets verified. And it gets verified, yeah, by people who have been on a date with you. So you go on a date and then you both tick the we have dated box. Leave a review. And then you can, yeah, you leave a little review. Go through their stats.

And if it says, it says six foot, brown eyes. Very professional. Send a link to your friends and they can endorse you. And you go, yes, yes. No, his shoes were shit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And he couldn't use PowerPoint for crap. Oh.

Not everyone is happy about the idea of LinkedIn being used for dating, though, because now some people are receiving U-Up-style DMs on their LinkedIn, as well as all the other apps that they usually get it on. You know? No, you've got so... That should just be for job offers. Well, yeah. But now it's like, hey girl.

No. Apps have their like sort of personalities, like tinders for hookups, hinges for this. LinkedIn, professional. And if you're getting messages... LinkedIn what? LinkedIn's professional. It's what?

Let her have it. Nah, I can't let her have that word in a professional setting. Am I saying it wrong? Professional. There is. Thanks, Ella. I had to verify. that you were able to say it.

I'll endorse her. No, but LinkedIn's... Sorry, sorry, get your point out. Sorry. Can I talk? No, okay. Can you? I don't know.

I'll try. I get what you're saying though. Like, there's an app for everything. There's an app for everything. And LinkedIn is for career, right? Yes, but this is what human beings do. They find a way to have sex through everything. It's like how Strava the running out.

Yes, exactly right, Claudia. This is why we can't have nice things. No. One of the bonuses about scoping something on LinkedIn though is that they reckon the photo is more realistic because you're not filtering the photo that you put on LinkedIn. You're not face-tuning your photo for LinkedIn. You've just got a nice tidy headshot.

Yeah, it's more likely to be you in business casual. And a genuine blurb. I don't know about a genuine blurb, but there'd be a bit of fluff in there. I think it's also possibly the worst for dating though because all of your movements on LinkedIn are traceable. Or is that, you know, everything you do on LinkedIn, if you come to my page, I can see everything that you do. If you look at my profile picture, I can see it.

You get notified about who's been there. Or is that flirty? You get a notification that says Claudia has viewed your profile 17 times in the last week. That's it. Wink, wink, wink. She's desperate. That's the equivalent to someone liking your story, I reckon. Or a Facebook poke.

Oh, my God. Bring back the poke. I'm going to Clint's LinkedIn right now. No, get off my LinkedIn. No. Read the blurb out. We've done this before. No, we're not doing that.

I want to know from people this afternoon what app you met your partner or your ex-partner through that wasn't a dating or traditional social media app. Did you meet on LinkedIn? Did you meet on the Uber Eats app? Did you meet on TradeMe? On the Trade Me app. No way.

Imagine that. You're going to the cellar. Yes. And they're really hot and then you patted off. Yes. Yes. Did you meet through the Farmscapes app? What?

Did you meet through the Monopoly app? I don't know. If you met somebody and had a relationship, no matter how long or short, that wasn't a dating app or a traditional social media app, can you tell us about it this afternoon? Play Z-Ems, Bree and Clint. News out today saying that LinkedIn is a hotbed of singles interacting with each other. Maybe not just singles. Maybe that's how the cheating CEOs. do it, like the Coldplay CEO.

You know, your Mrs. is probably not checking your LinkedIn DMs, is she if she's suspicious of you? So maybe they're on to something. We asked, what's the app that's not a dating app that you met somebody through? This is a good one, and they want to be anonymous. Hi Anonymous.

Hello there. Hello. What was the app that you met your partner through? I met my partner on Roblox. On Roblox? Yes, I know it sounds funny. Yes, it does sound funny. How, when? Tell us the details. Okay, so usually someone of my age wouldn't be playing an app like that Yes

I have kids and I am separated from my ex And I spend time with my kids by playing games with them on Robox Nice And my partner who I met on Robox Was in the same situation And we just met each other in a game Started chatting eventually over a course of time We ended up talking in Discord

And then eventually met up in real life I see We've been dating for about a year now That's so cool Yeah I love that Excuse me because I've never played Roblox before But do you have like a headset

And can you communicate like verbally with people Or did you this all come about through like messenger chat? Just through chat There's no sort of verbal chat Really? Yeah And you managed to forge enough of a connection to go We both have these things in common

Let's take this Let's take this to the discord And then you've met up in real life Oh wait, have you met up in real life? Many times, yes Okay, so it's a real bona fide relationship Yes So she actually lives in Australia

So I've had to fly over numerous times and I'll be moving over next year. I was going to say what's the long-term plan? You'll move. Yes, that's right. Well, hey, Anonymous, that's great. I'm really happy for you. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Cheers. Well, good. We're asking what's the app, the non-traditional dating app that you met your partner through? Someone said, I met my partner on Bebo. Yeah, that's definitely, well, it would have been traditional back then.

But, yeah, if you're still on Bebo now, I'd be pretty out there. Another one, I met my wife on MySpace. I met my now fiancé on the gaming app called White Out Survival. He's moving to New Zealand in January. Buzzy. See, that's, what anonymous problem was, too, is do you fall for the person before you find out their location? It's so hard when it's global.

I met my now wife of 20 years on MSN Messenger. So that's the OG. I didn't know that you could talk to Randos on MSN Messenger. I was a big MSN Messenger, but I thought they had to be. be your friend contact. Yeah, and you had to add like an email address or something. Yeah, you had to accept each other and then... So it's an email app.

It was based off your hotmail account. You had to have a hotmail account, but... No, it's not email. It was just a chat app. The original instant messaging situation. Oh my God, how do you explain MSN Messenger to a Gen Z? It feels very foreign. I don't understand.

It's like Facebook Messenger. No, it's not, though. Is it? It's Jason. It's Facebook Messenger. if you, if everybody went on Facebook Messenger at a certain time every night and you could see who was on and who was off. And you get a little notification that they've come online.

Oh, cute. And then your crush hops online. So you hop off my God, MS and Messenger was the best. Yeah. Someone met their partner on Minecraft. Great. That's awesome. Great.

My partner and I were part of an online gaming group. So we first met in a multiplayer game of Town of Salem. Eventually, we got talking on Skype. We hit it off. Nine years later, we have moved countries to live together and we're getting married next June. That's amazing. That's great.

R-A-P Skype. R-R-P Skype. R-R-P Skype. R-P MSN Messenger? Yeah. Actually? Yeah. Do we know that?

Yeah. It's not coming back like Club Penguin did. Did anyone meet their partner? Did anyone meet their partner on Club Penguin? That sounds like a dodgy one. I feel like you shouldn't have been allowed on Club Penguin if you were. Over 12? Yeah.

If you were looking to mingle, get off Club Penguin. Get out of you. ZDM's Bree and Clint Podcast. Question for you. Would you clone your pet? If you could, would you clone your pet? Either when they are near the end of their life or at the start of their life? Because you're like, man, this dog's sick.

Imagine if I had two of this exact same dog. It doesn't matter when you clone them. The technology now exists. Barbara Streisand is the most famous dog cloner She has two dogs called Miss Scarlet and Miss Violet Who are genetically identical copies of her dead dog So she had this dog She loved the dog

She said I miss that dog She got the dog cloned But she got two of them So she now has two Identical versions of her previous dog This might be dumb of me Yes I didn't realise cloning was public

available. Yes, it is. Like, I thought that was still one of those things. They're like, we tested it and the one we made was a bit wonky. And they're like, don't worry when you're getting your hair cut about where your hair goes. We promise we can't clone you. Well, you can. Today, Tom Brady, world famous quarterback, one of the last people to get roasted on the celebrity roast.

Former husband of Supermodel Jusel Bunchen, he's in the news because he too has cloned the family dog. Lua is a pit bull. well was a pit bull she died in 23 she's been cloned using a blood sample collected before she died I don't know with this if you can clone them posthumously

you know if the dog dies suddenly you need a living sample do you need a living sample I don't know the answer to that and if you do then you would have to keep one in the freezer and be like love this dog hope nothing happens but just in case I'm not on board with this day here's my insurance policy

He's cloned the dog He said He took a simple blood draw From the family's elderly dog Before it passed Which he said Gave his family a second chance With the clone of their beloved dog

It's weird to me Yeah Just get another dog Well that's it Like you are allowed to like Love your pet You know for some people It's their child

Yes I get it Yes But at the same time You're allowed to love again too Yeah Like have those memories associated to that one animal

pet and move on find another pet, different personality, different vibes. I agree with you. It's cool. The company that cloned Tom Brady's dog is the same one that earlier this year bought the dire wolf back from extinction. Do you remember that story? Oh yes. The dire wolf from Fricking Game of Thrones

which people were like, wait, that was a real wolf. I thought they made that up for the book. They bought those back. Tom Brady is also an investor in that company, so hashtag ad, I guess. He's a busy bee Also, ethics aside And I know nothing about the science of cloning

But if we can do dogs We can do people Yeah, I was going to ask you that If we can do dogs, we can do people If we can do sheep, we can do people How are we any different? I know we genetically, our genetic makeup is different But surely the mechanics of it are the same

And it's the ethics, the ethics are just What would that look like though? Because we do have siblings but what is the cloning say it is a human is it like literally it's a freaking minefield Ella so then you exist you exist and but you exist

10 years after your biological parents died you're like why did you bring me into why did you bring me into this world? What am I? What am I? Who am I? Where am I? Yeah wow this is not my beautiful house This is not my beautiful wife I want to know

from people how we feel about cloning dogs, not people, dogs, cats, family pets, horses, I'm okay with horses. How do you feel, well, I'm okay about discussing horses. Right. I'm not okay with discussing cloning human beings. No.

I don't want to wade into that one. But I'm happy with discussing basically all animals, really. The question is, yeah, fish, what kind of moron is cloning a fish? But yeah, if you really love your gold, fish and you're like... Lorikeets.

Before you flush it down the toilet. What? Loricate. Lorakot. So the question is, if you could afford it, would you clone your pet? Because it is possible. This is not a hypothetical.

If you could afford it, would you clone your pet? Even better, and this would be a real long shot, have you done it? Is there someone listening who has cloned their pet? Or are you like me and you think that this is really quite weird and not somewhere we should be going. What's everyone's opinions on it? Would you clone your pets?

Dead is Branklin. Freeze away. Tom Brady is the latest celebrity to come out and go, hey, man, I cloned my dog. And I think he wants everyone to be like, whoa, cool, Tom Brady. But actually, people have just gone, wait, are we cool with this now?

Are we doing this now? And some people are. Like, we've got a lot of feedback on this. Some people are cool with it. Some people think it's weird. And I thought we could discuss it this afternoon. So let's start with Morsesei. Hi, Mosece.

Hey, how's it? Good, good. Oh, sorry, you there? Yes, I'm here. Good man. Where do you sit on the idea of cloning your dog? I have more questions. Like, do they come back with the same memory?

Like, am I retraining the dog? So we've had a lot of questions about that on the text machine. Short answer, I don't know. Okay. Long answer, the dog will have the exact same genetic makeup, so we'll have the same brain. does that mean the dog has the same or cat has the same brain chemistry

and then you go into like a nature versus nurture conversation and you go does my dog behave the way it does because of the way I raised it or was it just born that way? You know, I don't know the answer Mo Sesei, right? No, that's a good point. There is another aspect to this

that does not have to please do not associate this with your pets but there's this like so like word hunker If we can, like, clone cattle and sheep. It's a great message. It's a great thought. We had a message from a farmer before who said that cloning would be an absolute game changer for them because they would just clone all of their best animals or the ones that are the healthiest

that produce the most meat that, you know, you just get the perfect animal and then, yeah. And they said salmon, we laughed at cloning fish, but they said, no, salmon farmers would love a pool full of perfect salmon, you know? Oh, wow. Does that be also the horse racing? Exactly right. Exactly right. They are cloning horses. We've got a text from someone who said the world's most successful polo player, horse polo player.

All of his horses that he rides are clones of his original horse. Dang, they must be purebred. The purest of purebred. He's bred with himself. Hey, those are great questions, Mississa. Thank you for calling. Thank you, Sia. All good.

See you. Hi, Andy. Hey, how you done? Good. Have you got a dog? Yeah, I do. I've actually just picked her up from daycare. She's sitting in the back with me now.

What's her name? Sorry, this is Sky. She's a little golden retriever. Sky, the golden retriever. I have a golden retriever too. They're wonderful dogs. Do you want two skies? Would you clone Sky?

No, I wouldn't. And I think other reasoning is the whole genetic thing. Yes, your dog would be completely genetically identical, but unless you could replicate. exactly what you did when you first raised your puppy. They'd grow up with different personality traits and different behaviour

with stuff. It's kind of like identical twins. They're both genetically identical but they have different personalities. I agree with you, Andy. Because arguably dogs do clone themselves. Like I've met a lot of golden retrievers and sometimes it's really hard to tell them apart. You know? Like if you love a golden

retriever, you can go and get another golden retriever right? You don't have to clone it. Yeah, 100%. I mean, like when we Scott Skye was during the last COVID lockdown. So we had like a couple of months where we did all the training and did everything. We could never replicate that. But even if we could, it still wouldn't be the same. Yeah, no, fair enough.

I agree with you. Thank you, Andy. Perla's here. Hi, Perla. Hi, Perla. Are we cloning animals? Is it a good idea, Perla? No.

Why not? Well, first of all, it does affect the nature. And I really don't think it's the idea. Yeah. Have you got a dog? I used to. She passed away. Do you miss that dog?

Yes. Do you wish you could have that dog back? If you had a little tube of its blood in the freezer and you could go down to the shop and they make you another one of that dog, would you do it? No. Why not? Because I want her, you know? Yeah. It's not her, is it?

Yeah, it's not her. Okay, thanks so much. I appreciate your call. Someone said cloning is a narcissist's drug. dream, that's so true. Imagine if they could do people and you are like, I am so hot and so cool and so nice. There should be another me, which is a total, it sounds like the plot to a movie and someone else texts in and said, haven't you guys seen the movies? The clone always turns out to be evil. You know, when you close, that, the clone always ends up being

the evil one and you can never tell which one is which. Question, if you clone yourself and you have to raise that clone. Yourself, yeah. Are you their parent? Yeah. Are you your own daddy? The mentor. I love my dog, but I would never clone her. She'd cray craye. Great text. I would clone my pet so I could have double the cats at night.

This is the thing. You can have double the cats at night. Yeah. The SPCA is full of cats. Ella has five foster cats at her house that she desperately needs to adopt out. There's so many cats out there. But no, I get it. I just think, someone actually brought it up on the text machine.

Is it not being able to cope with death as well? Like, learning to let go. Yeah, yeah. Well, you're trying to cheat death, aren't you? Yeah, yeah. Also, are you reducing the unique special nature of that dog? Totally. Because you're like, I love this dog, but I'll just get another one.

Yeah. There's something special about that one pet. Yeah. Or like you, there's only one Clint. We don't need more. You don't need more or you don't want more? Mead. Just mean.

Yeah, neat. If I had to say what the feedback on the text machine was as a percentage, I reckon it's 90% anti-cloning. Yeah. And 10% people who are like, my animal is the tits. Give me another one of those. Yeah. Interesting. Thanks, guys.

Appreciate your thoughts. ZD.M. Brainclint. Brainclints. All I want to my birthday. Birthday banger. And do a delightful birthday banger instead where yesterday I got dragged for playing the wrong version of Mariah Carey's fantasy.

Can I say I've had a lot of support since then from people who say, nah, Clint, you played the right one. The ODB remix is the one to play. But we're moving on from that, and I promise next time it comes up to play the original. Let's see what happens today. Millie is going to do their mum Crystal's birthday banger. Hi, Millie. We'll come back to Millie.

Let's go to Nick. Hi, Nick. Are you there? Yeah, mate. Hello. Hello, welcome to birthday banger. Nick, how's your day been? Yeah, not too bad, mate. How's yours?

Good. Beautiful day here. Let's see your birthday, banger. What's your day to birth? 27th of September, 1989. Okay, Nicholas. You were 16 on the 27th of September 2005, and on that day, this was the number one song. Don't you wish your girlfriend was fun like me? Pussycat dolls.

Is that a bit of you, Nick? Wait, was that in 1989? No, so you were born 89, you were 16 in 2005. Your birthday banger is the number one song when you turned 16. Oh, right. Yeah. Oh, dammer. Damn it. I think he's not a fan.

Wait there, we'll do a birthday banger for Hannah, who's going to do their mum, Jocelyn's birthday banger. Hi, Hannah. Hi. How are you going? How's your day been? Good. Good.

What's your mum's date of birth, Hannah? 18. August 1980. Good job, Hannah. You've done excellent. That means Jocelyn, your mum,

was 16 on the 18th of August 1999, and this is her birthday banger. Someone's laughing. What do we think about Jenny in a bottle, ladies? Good song. Good song. Yeah, I agree. Okay, wait there. Let's see if we can get Millie back. Are you there, Millie?

Say Lily. Lily? Lily. Is it Lily? Yeah. Oh, sorry, Lily. We had you down as Millie. That's why we weren't connecting before. We've got you now. Lily, what's your mum's name? Crystal. Crystal. And what's your mum's date of birth, Lily? Third of August, 85. Okay. Mom was 16 on the 3rd of August. 2001 and this is your

mum's birthday banger I don't think you red for sister I don't think you red for this girl I've almost lost my own birthday bonger privileges after yesterday but

yeah you really did a doozy with that one Genie in a bottle. Is that for your vote? This is my vote, Jenny and a bottle. Is it? Yeah. Oh, look at us. You finally singed up.

Hannah. Yeah. You just won birthday banger for your mum. Well done. Woo! Here you go. From the year 99, it's Christina Aguilera. I feel like I've been locked up to have a century.

ZM's Brie and Clint, podcast. I'm a genie. Brian Clint on ZM. That's a birthday banger For Hannah's mum Jocelyn, it was number one in the year 1999, Christina Aguilera's Jeannie in a Bottle.

The ZM Podcast Network I said to you before I have a new type of book club for people who hate book clubs and a new way to socialise for people who hate socialising. Ella, you strike me as the book club type. I actually would love to

but I've never ever done a book club. You've never been invited. Well, you could start one. That's too much. There was a sign-up list for the ZM one. I tried to do that. Well, I think people took the piss out of it because I signed Ross up. Oh.

Even though. It was like 10 people and then it never, nothing happened. Nothing happened. I didn't organise it. Oh, good one. Oh, was it you? Yeah. I sent the email out.

Well, maybe you should look into a silent book club. I was reading about these today. They're exactly what they sound like. Book clubs where people meet up to read in silence. Well, that's what you do when you read. Yeah. But there's no pressure in this book club to finish the book. There's no pressure to talk about the book

What, that's the point of a book club? You don't even have to share what you're reading It's just a room full of book lovers Enjoying some quiet And reading in each other's presence You're not even reading the same book as each other I hate this idea You're just existing together

They're being held in cafes, bars and libraries Around the world This is a real thing They're officially licensed events So the silent book club is like like a thing. They have, and I get the pun here, they've got 2,000

official silent book club chapters around the world. I have so many issues with this idea. First of all, if you want to read in silence, I don't want to do that at a cafe, I want to do it in my bed or in the lounge, on the couch. I don't want you to read out loud at a cafe.

Well, I know that, but you know, like I'd rather not sit at a table. I want to do it in a in my bed. Yeah, okay, yeah. And the second thing is, I get, maybe this is more of a get outside, meet some people, make some friends. Well, is it? But is it, yes, isn't it? Because this is how it works.

So this is the format of silent book club evenings. Oh, this is so stupid. There's a little bit of socialising at the start, minimal. And then there is a quiet reading hour. And then everyone reads their own book. And then at the end, you can stay in chat if you want or you can just leave. And hashtag no judgment If you just want to leave

Okay this is okay It seems to me like a nice Slow introduction for introverts to get outside of it That's how it's targeted at Yeah And I am an introvert But it's interacting light It's silly

It's soft What? So soft socialising They say they're great for anyone who loves reading But hates the awkwardness of traditional book clubs the tagline for silent book club is reading alone together. What that? That's so cute.

There is one benefit, though, that I have found. I'm not a part of one, but I've just been looking into them. The benefit, so you're saying it's missing all the elements of a book club. What it does is being in a room full of people who are all reading pressures you to stay off your phone and actually focus on the book. Okay. Because if the other people in Silent Book Club see you. that you've put the book down to scroll,

shame. Shame on you, scrolling at silent book club. You could scroll at home. Well, yeah. That's how you market it then. They need to go out with that. Wait, here we go.

Are you wanting to read? But do you struggle with your phone? This is just, did you guys have it at school? USSR? Super silent reading. Yeah, uninterrupted, uninterrupted, supersister.

Uninterrupted, sustained. Silent reading. I think ours is easier, SSR, super-solverating. Yeah, that's Cooke. Yeah. What the? Would you join this book club? No, I don't read.

This is not for me. Right. Play Z-M's Brie and Clint on Insta, Facebook, TikTok, and live weekdays from three on ZM.
